Coming Out Support Group

bring it up suddenly. like the topic of gay people. when I was younger before I actually thought of my self as gay I would ask my friends jokingly "would you still be my friend if I liked girls" but I was like 12.. sooo that prolly wont work the same. try to bring it up with out actually saying it. gah that makes no sense! but if they are your friends things shouldnt change. spending the night might be weird for a while but they will get over it!!!! let them know who you are!!!

I have an idea of how you feel. My best friend and I always act like lesbians...thing is, i think i am. She always tell me that she would still be my friend if i was a lesbian (i think that she suspects i am), because I am her best friend. but for some reason, i still dont want to tell her, because I'm afraid she will hate me too. and the rest of my friends are conservatives who are very religious. i know that they will be weirded out that i am (at least i think i am) a lesbian. i dont know how you can come out to them, because I have not come out yet either. but i wish you luck in your endeavor. if you need to talk, im here for you.

This may sound dumb but honestly if they truly care for you and want to be your friend then they could care or less about your sexual orentation trust me I came out to my friends and family 3 years ago and they for the most part could care or less I'm a lesbian. Now don't get me wrong it hasn't been a cake walk but just trust me things will work out for the better.

You being gay is but a small part of the whole person that is you. I would take it slow in telling your friends. Start with one who you feel would be the most accepting of you. After you gain confidence you can tell others. Being gay doesn't mean you need to tell everyone about it. If I am asked I don't deny it, but I don't go around advertising it either. Coming out isn't always a positive experience and you most likely will lose some "friends". But then again, if you do, they really weren't your friends anyway. Best of luck to you.

I've told two close friends that I think I'm bi and they have been incredibly supportive. I'm glad they love me no matter what. Your friends might surprise you. God bless!

If they are your true friends they won't hate you. They will probably need some time to process what you tell them but don't give up on them. Good luck and hugs to you.
